getting band to the right adjustment

I am 11 weeks out going for 3rd fill 05/31/07. My stomach still growls, loudly. Will this stop once I have reached the "sweet spot". Will I begin to fill a sense of fullness and satisfaction after say a cup of protein? Just tryin to get a feel. I currently have some restrictions on certain foods, but still get hungry between meals. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Its normal to get hungry between meals if they're hours apart - in fact I get hungry more now than I used to but not inappropriately hungry. If its hours since I've eaten and my tummy is rumbling, I eat something, like an apple, and I'll be fine again.

Its being overly hungry that's a problem, and that does reduce with good restriction.

I was told my the nurse that the band is like a belt. You have to keep adusting until you fit the belt into the right hole. I just want to know once it gets to the correct fit will I get a sense of fullness and at that point I should begin to loose. Thanks for any input you may have!
